Over the 4 years you will get to know Ofwat well and have the opportunity to support work in our casework enforcement and customers directorate, you’ll develop a broad skillset, you'll be able to apply the theory you learn at university and put into practice in your day to day role.
The Casework and Enforcement team plays a key role in holding water companies to account to ensure they are meeting their legal obligations to customers and the environment. The team is also the 'front door' for many of the customers and stakeholders who contact Ofwat with enquiries or complaints about the sector or their water company, and for businesses that want to become new water companies. Our work can range from deciding on an individual customer's dispute with their water company, to assessing whether a company is fit to be a water company, to imposing multi-million-pound fines on a water company where it has failed to meet its legal obligations.
The work we do is complex and has direct implications for customers and the environment. You’ll be given the opportunity to demonstrate your potential from the outset and your passion for learning will see you relish the opportunity!
